More rain has again delayed the start of an American Legion baseball playoff series between Burlington-Graham Post 63 and High Point Post 87.

The best-of-5 series, originally scheduled to start Tuesday, will now start tonight after Wednesday night’s game at High Point was postponed. Post 63 will play host to the series-opening game at 6 tonight at Tom Zachary Field.

Game 2 is slated for 6 on Friday night at High Point and Game 3 will be played at 5 p.m. on Saturday. If necessary, the series will conclude Sunday with a doubleheader, with Game 4 slated for noon at High Point and Game 5 to be played at 7 p.m. in Graham.

The series has to be finished by Sunday night because the second round of the playoffs begins Monday. The second round is also a best-of-5 format.
